On the Importance of a Name

A name is the representation of a person or an entity. It plays an important role in social recognition, just as the old saying goes: a thing is the entity of a name. However, people have diverse opinions on the importance of a name. Some people say that name is important, while the others maintain the other way round. But I think name is of great importance because it is the symbol that distinguishes one thing or person from the others.

We cannot deny the importance of a name, be it for a person or a thing. In the world today, no one can live without identification because they must get social recognition, and name is the symbol of the identification. Once a person or a thing gets social recognition, people will remember their names, and they will get further improvement. Besides, a good name will bring people some nice association. A person with a special name may be easily accepted by a group or a community because of the deep impression the name leaves.

As for companies or products, a name is also vitally important. Years ago, a computer company spent millions of dollars for the name “Acer”. Since then, the company caught the attention of potential customers and became one of giants in the field. However, another company was facing bankruptcy, for the name of its product implies unfavorable meaning thus cannot be sold out. Can we say that name is not important?

A name may affect the whole life of a person, and a name may also influence the future of a company and its products. Therefore, we must treat names carefully.

写作范文：

According to the Bible, it is the almighty God who gave names to everything he created: "he named the light ‘Day' and the darkness ‘Night'". In fact, a name is a word or phrase that man uses to denote and identify a specific person, place or thing. There is no inexorable correlation between the sign and "the signified". For this reason, some claim that names are not so vital as they are supposed to be. However, I am fully convinced that they are of great importance.

Take the name of a person as an example. It is known to all that a person's name is divided into two parts: given name and surname. The given name is the name our parents assign us. We ourselves might change it later in our life. Usually, when a name is given, it contains a lot of information. Say, "li" in the name of some Chinese females shows that we wish them to "beautiful" while "wei" in the names of some males reveals that we expect them to be "great" in their future life.

As to the surname or family name, it is even more important, so important that some people may sacrifice their life for it. Originally, man had no such a name. But ever since a certain name was given, each member of the family carries it wherever he goes. Rather than merely a sign, it is the root from which we can trace back to our ancestor, the tie that helps bind us to other members of the same clan, the dignity most people hope to live for.

Apart from the name of a person, that of a place or thing is also significant in that it embodies history and culture. All in all, though names are assigned artificially, man is not free when giving names. But God is.

英语四级A卷作文（北京新东方学校 王江涛）：

Free Admission To Museums

Recently, museums in mounting numbers become admission-free to the public both home abroad. The purpose of this practice is to offer more opportunities for citizens to explore and get easy access to the world of history, culture and knowledge.

Although free admission to museums enjoys distinct advantages, it also brings harmful effects. In the first place, these valuable cultural relics displayed may be damaged or destroyed consciously or unconsciously by the crowds. In the second place, it becomes a huge economic burden for museums to run as usual without any profits from the visitors.

It is my view that free admission to museums is of utmost significance. For one thing, we should appeal to our authorities to legislate strict laws and regulations to protect these museums. For another, we should cultivate the awareness of people that museums are extremely vital to us humans. It is high time that we attached great importance to our motherlands’ splendid and glorious culture of more than five thousand years.

复合式听写原文

English is the leading international language. In different countries around the globe English is acquired as the mother tongue; in others it is used as a second language. Some nations use English as their official language, performing the function of administration; in others it is used as an international language for business, commerce and industry.

What factors and forces have led to the spread of English? Why is English now considered to be so prestigious that, across the globe, individuals and societies feel disadvantaged if they do not have competence in this language? How has English changed through 1,500 years? These are some of the questions that you investigate when you study English.

You also examine the immense variability of English and come to understand how it is used as a symbol of both individual identity and social connection. You develop in-depth knowledge of the intricate structure of the language. Why do some non-native speakers of English claim that it is a difficult language to learn, while infants born into English-speaking communities acquire their language before they learn to use forks and knives? At the university of Sussex, you are introduced to the nature and grammar of English in all its aspects. This involves the study of sound structures, the formation of words, the sequencing of words and the construction of meaning, as well as examination of the theories explaining these aspects of English usage. You are encouraged to develop your own individual responses to various practical and theoretical issues, which are raised by studying how speakers and writers employ English for a wide variety of purposes.

长对话原文

11. W: I forgot to tell you that Fred called last night to borrow your sleeping bag。

M: Oh, I saw him at the gym this morning, but he didn’t say anything. So he must have asked somebody else。

Q: What does the man imply?

12. W: These summer days are getting to be more than I can take. It was even too hot to go to the pool yesterday。

M: Hang in there. According to the weather report we should have some relief by the end of the week。

Q: What does the man mean?

13. W: Well, tonight we have Professor Brown in our studio to talk about the famous oil painting of Queen Victoria. Good evening, professor。

M: Good evening, madam, my pleasure to be here tonight。

Q: What is the woman doing?

14. M: The plants next to the window always look brown. You wouldn’t know by looking at them that I water them every week。

W: Maybe they don’t like direct sunlight. I had the same problem with some of my plants. And a little shade helps them immensely。

Q: What does the woman imply?

15. M: I’m really exhausted, Mary. But I don’t want to miss the Hollywood movie that comes on at 11。

W: If I were you, I’d skip it. We both have to get up early tomorrow. And anyway I’ve heard it’s not as exciting as advertised。

Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?

16. M: Those modern sculptures over there are really weird. Don’t you think so?

W：Well, I couldn’t stand them either at first. But now I’ve come to like modern art, particularly those sculptures carved by Italian artists。

Q: What does the woman mean?

17. M: I’m really glad our club decided to raise money for the children’s hospital. And most of the people we phoned seemed happy to contribute。

W: Yeah! I agree. Now that we’ve gone through all the numbers on our list, I guess we can call it a day。

Q: What do we learn about the speakers?

18. M: Have you heard of Professor Smith? I’m thinking of taking an advanced engineering course with him. What do you think?

W: Yeah! You really should. He’s published dozens of books so far, once been recommended as a textbook for postgraduates。

Q: What does the woman imply?

什么是军魂? 燃烧弹在我身边爆炸,大火就在我身边燃烧起来了,我喜欢吃烤鸡腿,但害怕烤到自己,面临着自己被火烤时,我不能随便移动哪怕几公分的距离!为什么?这是上级的命令,这是我的职责! 前面碉堡里机枪很是凶猛,很多战士中弹身亡,后面的战士们又冲上去,为了避免更大的伤亡,我只能堵住机枪眼,难道我不想躲过子弹硬向子弹上撞吗?我也想活者看到胜利的曙光,但这是我必须去做,这是我的使命! 即使四面被围,弹尽粮绝,我们也要跟敌人撕杀最后一次, 不惜与敌人同归与尽,因为在我们部队的传统里面没有后退一词,没有投降一词!

这就是我们中国军魂!

铁打的营盘,流水的兵.当兵的一岔接着一岔,他们手中的旗帜没有变,他们部队的传统没有变,他们的荣誉没有变,他们的使命没有变!即使面临新的战争,他们也一样打赢敌人没有二话 !

是匹野马,就应该驰骋大地;

是只雄鹰,就能够搏击蓝天!

让我们肩负起新的使命,昂首阔步于世界大国里,我们永远不会输给别人的!

每一个大学都有一个属于自己的文化,它包括每一个大学生的道德风范,精神风貌与求学理念.

曾经有一个学生高考成绩特别好,山东大学里的一个招生老师跟他联系说,只要他愿意以第一志愿报考山大,四年学费全免.在这样的利益或诱惑下,很多人也许会当即答应的,毕竟山大也错名牌了嘛,但是这位考生却说我想上北大,我上学不仅是为了学习课本上的知识,更重要的是学习这个大学的文化.

课本上的知识相对来说是死的,但一个大学的文化却是活的,它就在你的 身边,无时无刻不在影响着你,比如一个大学里的人都乱仍垃圾,你难道会很自觉的找垃圾桶吗?一个大学里打架的很多,当他们欺负到你的头上,你能不还手吗?一个大学里说话粗鲁,讲话很不文明,在这种环境下,你会不受影响吗? 不用想也知道,上一级学生的言行举止,办事作风都无时不在影响着下一级的学生们.这种风气将传的很久很久.

改变一个大学落后的文化,的的确确是很难的,因为这已经成了风气,但并不是没有办法,它需要几代学生们的努力.我们的确不如别人,但我们同样拥有拼搏,只要我们时刻不忘追赶他们,学习他们,我们就会有机会,每一届前进那怕一点点,几年 的时间,我们的理念就会大大 的不一样,我们的理念从原来的松弛和懒惰变成了拼搏和追赶,这种精神就会留给我们的师弟师妹们,他们同样会接过这面精神旗帜继续前进,这就是我们的大学魂!

第七篇

尊敬的校长先生：

您好。我是湖南长沙人，是一个乖巧女儿的父亲。之所以知道中国文化大学，是因为我的女儿。给您写这封信，在您百忙之中，又增添一个忙，还是因为我的女儿。我的女儿单纯、善良、诚实、可爱、勤劳、爱学，是陕西科技大学外国语与传播学院大三的学生。目前，在陕西科技大学的组织下，于2014年2月14日赴贵校交流读书，学习时间为一个学期。

女儿初到贵校几天，就喜欢上了这个毗邻阳明山国家公园，校舍古色古香的学府。并以传播学生的视角，给家里发了许多精美的学校风景相片，说：真是选对了一所学校，不仅环境优美，且学习氛围浓烈。尤其是传播方面，独树一帜。学校创办者张其昀“承东西之道统、集中外之精华”的办学理念，在这里得到充分体现，真正可以学到不少的东西。

众所周知的原因，由于大陆***的浩劫，以及近年来一些地方急功近利的做法，大陆传统的东西消失的很多、很快。我的儿女作为90后，很多传统的东西只能从书本和人们的记忆中寻找了，现在很荣幸能赴贵校交流读书，就是想着能在传统依然浓郁的文化大学，受到传统文化的熏陶，展现中华儿女文化风采的魅力。可是，现在遇到了一个困惑，恳请校长先生拨冗关注。

这就是选课的问题。不知道是陕西科技大学和贵校的沟通问题还是贵校的规矩。女儿和同学在选课中遇到了困难。在赴贵校之前，陕西科技大学就组织她们同赴贵校交流的13名学生进行了选课。可是，到了贵校却要重新选课，而且有诸多限制，如：不能选择学年的课，只能选择学期的课，再如选择课程需以理论课程为主，不能选择实践课程等等。至于贵校个别老师的态度问题，那许是理念或者作为学者的一种姿态，只能要求女儿多理解了。

您是校长，是学者，关于交流生的做法和含义一定比我知道的多很多很多。作为一名普通学生的家长，想到的交流，就是要交换、流通，这样才能取长补短，事半功倍。源贵校之历史，已近一个世纪，中华传统文化在贵校依然完好。望校长先生在百忙之中，对女儿及她们同学选课问题予以关注，以满足女儿学习之目的。不当之处，不吝赐教。

谢谢。

順致春安。

第九篇

今年，利用暑假机会，我参加了中学生“美国之行”学习交流团，虽然短短的十几天，却切身感受到了异国的风情，也确实发现了一些中美文化的不同之处。这里写下的只是我的点滴感受。管窥之见。

散漫平等的校园文化

刚到美国的几天里，我们到一所地地道道的美国学院学习英语。初进教学楼的我们，仿佛进了迷宫中一般，常常找不到教室。很简单，美国学校的教室并不像我国的大多教学校那样把教室顺序排列在楼道一侧，其教室布局很随意，只在教室门口写上授课老师的名字。经过了整整一天的学习。大家才在教学楼里认清了方向。而教室里也没有那一块高出来的专属老师的讲台，上课时，美国的老师总喜欢走到学生们中间和大家“零距离”接触，以此来体现老师和学生的平等。更为奇怪的是。教室里竟连窗户也没有，老师解释说这是保护学生们上课时的隐私。最让我吃惊的是，当我赠送给教授英语课的老师一件中国小礼物时，老师竟然激动地和我拥抱，我虽一时不能适应老师的举动，却对这种朋友般的师生关系深深喜爱。

而在我国的大部分学校中，还是需要窗户让阳光洒进教室起照明作用的。也许在极少的时间里。你会在窗户后看到一双眼睛。

慎重保守的城建文化

华盛顿是美国的首都，想必是一片繁盛之景吧。可导游的一声“华盛顿到了”却叫我们大跌眼镜。什么呀，到处都是不超过十层的低矮建筑。在这里，十六七层的建筑可以称得上是高层建筑了。本以为美国到处都是高楼大厦的我，现在大失所望，不客气地说，华盛顿还不如我国的一些中小型城市呢。导游告诉我们，华盛顿的很多建筑都超过了百年历史，这里不允许建高楼，主要是为了不让城市的历史风貌遭到破坏，可以将美国的历史传承下去。如果遍地都是高楼大厦，我们还去哪儿看原汁原味的美国呢?

我们北京是历史古都，有数不尽的历史遗迹。当年梁思成先生曾提出保留老城墙改建城墙公园，结果指责先生阻碍城市建设的声潮一浪高过一浪，先生抱憾而去。而今当我们意识到京味文化的流失时，又大兴前门改造、永定门重建等工程，可那些还散发着油漆味的青砖又怎能体现历史的厚重呢?

热情开朗的“hello”文化

飞机抵达美国，我们最怕的事就是过美国海关了。工作人员可能都很凶，再叽里咕噜说一大串英文我们就真的过不了关了。在我胆战心惊地把护照交给长着大胡子的工作人员时。那位大叔夸张地咧开大嘴朝我说了声“hello”，还真把我吓着了。这是我和美国的“hello”文化的第一次亲密接触。到航天博物馆参观还要安检，真麻烦，不过我还是乖乖打开了包。“你好!”怎么回事?是我听错了吗?面前的检查员竟是用中文向我们问好，他见我如此积极配合他的工作，还朝我竖了大拇指。“谢谢!”哦，他那蹩脚的发音，在场的每一个人都笑了。商店里，大街上，总能听到美国人用生硬的中文和我们打招呼，遇人先问声“hello”对他们来讲就是一种习惯。我们中国人比较含蓄，见到不太熟悉的人都不会主动打招呼，就更不用说对一个陌生的路人了。但中国是个礼仪之邦，在我们伸出双手欢迎世界人民的时代，一句简单的“hello”“你好”就能拉近彼此的距离甚至消除误会和隔膜，把中国人的热情展现给每一个人，那我们又为什么不尝试着去做呢?

虽然美国的历史并不长，但短短的十几天旅行对其文化的了解也只是停留在表面。中美文化各有其独特的风韵，两国文化也有许多可以借鉴交流的地方。

第十篇

关于中国传统文化的作文 700字 寻访常州文化遗产—锡剧

在我乡下老家镇上的一条小巷里，住着一位老爷爷。他的名字我不太清楚，只听大家都叫他“老恽”。我呢，就叫他“老恽公公”。每次回乡下，只要一有空，我爷爷就会带我到他家去玩。

“老恽公公”是一个和蔼可亲，精干利落的老人，和我爷爷差不多年纪。他最大的爱好就是唱戏，每次还没走到他家的门口，就会听到从他家二楼窗户飘出的“伊伊呀呀”的唱戏声，我爷爷也非常喜欢听戏。所以，他们俩和还有其他几个年纪和他们差不多的人在一起，就会拉起二胡，打起板鼓，弹起扬琴，敲起小锣……在这些乐器的伴奏下，就会有一个或几个人，有女的有男的，有时还会穿着戏服，他们摆出姿势“啊-伊-呀”的唱起戏来。看他们那种陶醉的样子，真是其乐无穷啊！ 可我却觉得并没有什么好听的！

有一次我问爷爷，“唱戏很好玩吗？可我怎么觉得不怎么好听呢。”爷爷和老恽公公听了就笑呵呵地说“这是我们老年人的乐趣啊！我们小时候既没有电视更没有电脑，电影也难得看一回。各种戏曲倒是很多，我们就在一起学学唱唱，这就是我们最大的乐趣了。”“那你们唱的是什么呢？”我又问。老恽公公说：“是锡剧《珍珠塔》。你可别小看这个戏啊，它可是大有来历的。它是发源于我们常州的艺术瑰宝啊！锡剧最早叫常州滩簧，后来叫常锡文戏，现在才叫锡剧的。”“那既然是发源于我们常州的剧种为什么不叫‘常剧’而要叫锡剧呢？”我又好奇地问。老恽公公回答说：“那是因为刚解放的时候有许多唱锡剧的名角都住在无锡。后来国家定名的时候就叫‘锡剧’，但锡剧发源于常州的事实是大家都公认的。”原来是这样啊！我终于明白了。

后来，我又上网查了资料，果然锡剧是发源于常州的，而且还被定为首届常州市非物质文化遗产之一。我们应该重视和保护它。现在我听老恽公公和我爷爷在唱戏的时候，不再觉得那么讨厌了，反而觉得别有韵味。
